good and bad things

So yesterday I did something I've been wanting to do for years: buy a Nintendo DS. I've been wanting one for as long as I can remember and this year since I have a real job at my school I can afford it. I didn't actually get it from amazon.com because I didn't know if they did the bundle things like other websites. The bundle pack came with the console and the pokemon heartgold game and a case and starter pack - whatever that is. I'm really really excited. I've already had a chance to see the heartgold game because one of my friends got it for her birthday. It looks really good and fun, but that's coming from someone who never played with the pokemon games as a child. I played with the cards, but I never owned the games even though we had a gameboy since I was like 7. *shrugs* Oh, well. I'm finally getting into the games now. My order should come sometime next week.


This is a good and bad thing. Good because I am ridiculously excited to have a DS and a pokemon game, but bad because the week after next I have finals. I won't be studying at all once I get the DS. I'm going to try to NOT open the package until after finals, but that's not going to happen. I'm going to be playing it in class and at work and in my free time when I should be studying. This is what I get for buying it when I should have waited a few more weeks.
